Hi Jared,

There is a session cookie which is cleared if Student A clicks "Sign
out".  If Student A does not click "Sign out", the session will be
resumed when the browser goes to http://mail.google.com/a/domain.com
again.  Closing the browser window is not enough to clear the cookie.
The "Sign out" link looks like:

http://mail.google.com/a/domain.com/?logout

What some admins have done is to forward the user to that URL as part
of their own log off process.
